The answer was indeed to instal
libdbus1-dev
The problem was I wasn't expecting an error like that; no such problem occurred on the Debian box.
Oh, well, all is ok, now.

dbus 1.12.x is more recent - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-Bus . However,
your system may be missing some *-dev packages. Try installing this -
https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/libdbus-1-dev . Good luck!
You are right that you should not replace dbus...
